Dichloro(tricyclohexylphosphine)[(tricyclohexylphosphoranyl)methylidene]ruthenium(II) tetrafluoroborate

Use

Dichloro(tricyclohexylphosphine)[(tricyclohexylphosphoranyl)methylidene]ruthenium(II) tetrafluoroborate is considered “pre-activated” because no ligand dissociation is required for formation of the active catalytic species. It has reactivity profile similar to the Grubbs 1 st Generation Catalyst but is active at much lower temperatures (below 0 ℃).
